Trajan
Decius (249-251)
Decius was born in Pannonia. A very able administrator and
an excellent military leader, he was sent by Philip I to suppress
rebellious troops in the Balkans, but without his knowledge or
consent, he was proclaimed Emperor by those same troops.
Under threat of death, he led this army against Philip and
defeated him near Verona. He was a notable and cruel opponent of
Christianity which, according to Gibbon, he regarded as "a
recent and criminal superstition". Decius became the
first Emperor to die in battle against a foreign enemy, when he
was killed in a desperate fight against the Goths in a swamp
near modern Razgrad in Bulgaria.
